Up fhe Suiichback,

The one excursion of all others which our
people never tire of is the Mauch Chunk
Excursion. There is that iudescribabe
grandeur of scenery that fasciuatcs but
never satiates. There is always longing to
see it again and again.
Countless myriads of different tinted fol-
tage greet the gaze at every turn and all ef-
forts at description pale into nsignificance
when cpntrasted with the immensity of the
Switchback associations.
Artists of world wide fameh have endeayor-
ed to put ON canvas the glories of the
scenery, wild and weird around about Mauch
Chunk, but have signally failed Poets have
attempted to put in verse he awfully grand
magniticence of this locality, but in vain.
There is a sublimity, there is an ndescribable
overhaugng Mauch Cuunk which
neither the pen nor brush can adequately de-
pict. 1t must be seen to be even measurabIy
How wondrous! how exquisitely beautiful
were the universal exclamations of those
who accompanied the October excursion of las
year as they assembled Mt. Pisgah's heigh
or with eagle swiftness swept the rugged
curves leading to Mt. Jefferson's plane.
In selecting the date for this Excursion ii
was considered all important to give the ex-
,ursionists the advantage of the Autumnal
,ints, and it is a wel!-known fact that "Up
ahe Switchback is never as inviting as in the
middle of October.

head OF the list. 1t is not quite so bad when
taken in strong coffee or lemon juice. In the
form OF an emulsion it rs far less objection

prepare it, beat up the dose to be sdminis-

the Juice OF lemon or sufficient quantity
OF strong peppermint water; by this means
the offensive taste is completely disguised.

Hedge Fence Testimonials.

Twenty-fOur farmers from New Castle

county, Pa, met at Broad street station.
Philadelphia, and together they visited
trenton, New Jersey, yesterday and inspects
ed the Usage orange and wire combined
ience in that vicinity constructed upon the
Dayton (ohio) plan. After a critical exami
nation of the same they united unanimously
upon the following testimonials:
TRENTON, N. j., Sept. 30, 1887.
We, the Undersigned, have this day seen
tue Dayton (Ohio) hedge fences constructed
on properties contiguous to this city. and
after careful examination amt critical in
Vestigation of the lne, are prepared to saw
tnat no extravagant praise has been Law
lshed upon these hedges, but they are in
every respect what they have been repre-
Sented' The fence occupies 10 8 room than
any other fence we have ever seen, and
taperiDg to an apex st the top require, with
the patented pruning knife used, but little
time used in pruning. Being combination |
Oh wire and Usage stalks stapled together, it |
is proof against large animals breaking |
Cnrou9h, ana being cldsely woven together |
with growing shoots from the roots to the
apex the smaller animals are denied ingress
and egress through the interstices By the
cutting of the side roots and the bending of
the stalk at the root to an angle OF 45 de-
grees the roots are kept in subjection and
cease to be serious annoyance and detri-
ment to growing crops close up to the hedge
The fence is entirely devoid OF dead wood
and the Usage stalks not being cut are al
ways in healthy condition. 1t will last for
lifetime and for beauty it is unrlvaled.
The farmers of New Castle county, Della
ware, and Chester county, Pa, who want
'heap, durable, strong and handsome fence

Effects of Arsauia EatIng

Herald OF Health affirms that the exact
state of things brought about by arsenic eat
ing Is diminution of the strength OF the
blood; the capillary blood vessels are stopped
from working, the ends of the blood vessels
are killed, no blood is supplied to the skin,
and the real reason for its white, transparent
state is that it is practically dead.

Fence.
Samuel johnson of the Dayton Hedge
Company took several farmers to Trenton
yesterday. and this is the certificate they
gave him:
awe, the undersigned farmers Of New
Castle county, DEL, have this day inspected
and carefully examined the hedge of the
Dayton Hedge Company at Tronton, N. J.
We hnd that it fully sustains all that is
claimed for it by the company. 1t is neat,
strong and easily trimmed; seems without
lateral roots, thus permitting plant growth
close to the hedge and avoiding the deple-
tion of the soil the Usage hedge is SO often
condemned for. The fact that the stem of
the hedge does not have to be cut, as IN the
old fashion known as ''layiug," is one of the
decided improvements. All of the natural
strength of the hedge plant is preserved
and the wood is kept in health-it would
seem for a practically unlimited time. We
unanimously endorse this hedge and be-
lieve that at last fence is found that will
meet all the desired conditions of practical
farm enclosure:

Philadelphia Ledger that the arrangements
will be completed early in the new year, by
which the Baltimore and Ohio will secure,
on mutual satisfactory terms, its outlet to
New York, tho freight traffic going over the
Reading Railroad, and the passenger over
the Pennsylvania line. II Is admitted in
Baltimore and Ohio official circles that such
negotiations are pending.

Mr.. Powderly's Successor.

In the event OF the death or resignation
OF General Master Workman Powdcrly, his
regular successor in Office would be General
Worthy Foreman Richard Griiiiths, but it Is
not thought that he would serve any longer
than it would be necessary to hold an cleo
ton, as he is somewhat advanced in years.
Many knights express o preference for Paul
\. Bowen, who, according to John Swinton,
Is 'the most able and forciblc writer on
labor topics in America MIR. Bowen il a
clerk in the Fourth Auditors office at Wash
ington and formerly edited paper in
Hennepin County, Minnesota. He Is about
81 years of age and not very widely known
outside the order because he has Kept him
self aloof from the quarrcls and office
seeking squabbles that have been made so
much in print. lie is, however, said TO have
o very strong backing among the class OF
knights who arc Powderly's strongest
friends.

Tho Colored People stIlI Much Excited
Over the Matter.


The colorcd people are greatly in
censed over the Commissioners action
in regard to their protest against the use
of the building at Four-and-a-half street
and Maryland avenue for an industrial
school.
A mass meeting will he held tonight
at the Ebenezer Church, at Fourth and
ID streets southeast, and the ministers of
the colored churches and many others
interested in the matter are expected to
be present.
The colorcd citizens have sent petit
tion TO President Cleveland, asking him
TO direct the Commissioners 10 "obey
the laws" in regard to the selection of
school buildings, and also one to the
Commissioners, protesting against the
occupancy of the "Mary Hall" house on
Maryland avenue for colored school
on account of its immoral surroundings.
1t is quite long, and the colorcd commit
tee ask the President to approve it be-
fore 1t Is sent to the Commissioners.
To-night's mass meeting will probably
take some stringent action, and the Com
